I use this - Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices It's an air powered pump designed for thick fluids. It'll fill up a 55 gal barrel in a few minutes. And you can power it off of the truck's air supply at the gladhand.

There are 2 thick positive battery cables, make sure they're both connected. Get a multimeter, check the voltage of each battery, check the voltage in series (#1 batt + and #2 batt -) Check the cable to see what kind of voltage you're getting to find where the interruption is. Even though...

Yeah it was a good weekend to go fishing :razz:

I think the lesson to be learned in this mess is to buy a M816. :-D

My coworkers have been begging me to bring the deuce up to the office. BTW, that looks over off of 459? I work over off of Riverchase parkway.

I purposely rolled down the windows because I knew they'd get smashed. When I saw the sherrif's trucks and the tow truck I was expecting to drive up to a smoldering truck frame with all of the 'rockwells' missing. :cry:

They tried to drive the truck out until I took the batteries with me. It had been backed up about a foot until the realized that the steering was gone. :roll: I thought about letting someone else fix it, but who knows what bubba would have done as a trail fix. It was like we were in a race to...

If by 870 you mean M4A3. I really thought about it last night, but I'm so sick (still sick from last weekend's recovery in the rain) that I just couldn't do it. Then I started thinking about going to jail over shooting some moron stealing some $50 shackles and suddenly it wasn't so fun. Yeah...

Yeah, someone stole the freakin shackles on the front bumper. But they left the chain and cable on the winch :roll:

I dunno, I've been sick with a cold. So I'm going to lay down and finally get some sleep. I probably won't deal with it until next weekend. :roll:

Oh and one more thing - with the new drag link on, I've got like 4" of free play between resistance turning left to right. That's not right, Does anyone know how to fix that?

Update - So I headed out there equiped with my generator, plasma cutter, 9" angle grinder, and a ton of other tools... When we got onto the road before the trail I saw two sherrif's SUV's and two big tow trucks. I was really worried something happened. But it turned out that someone got...

Well I'm heading back out there in 30 min. Hopefully the truck is still there and hasn't been molested too bad by the locals :|

Yeah, if I had taken the wo/w truck I would have had a better chance. :roll: Freighttrain, you are pretty much correct. And yes, that steel is pretty weak on the drag link. Lowest bidder, remember :wink:

Oh and another thing :evil: I was keeping an eye on some rednecks passing by, when I FELL OFF THE BUMPER! Onto the stump and then rolled down the hill. About 5ft total. I'm all banged and scratched up.

Aww man, poor Wreckerman. Seems like Murphy was all over today :|

It came off the other truck in 45 seconds. I torched the stuck on, pb blasted it, smacked it with a hammer... no dice. :cry: Hoping the plasma cutter or the angle grinder will be the ticket tommow.

Didn't get to fish! :evil:

Winch has a broken engagement lever on the front. :roll: My wife is unable to drive due to a seizure back in Dec., my friends were all out of town, and I was alone in the woods. If I had not panicked as much as I did, I could have probably just saved myself from a lot of damage. But I got a...

Really appreciate the kind words folks. Like the South she will rise again! :-D I brought the chainsaw out and got the trees cut down. I think once I get the link off I should be able to drive out. (Hopefully :|) I might be able to justify to the wife to buy another winch truck and use this...
